Small World Layouts
'Athby Round'
Athby Round is an oval layout contained within a 'Really Useful Box.'
It featured a through road, an accessble and viewable tunnel, station halt and gated fields and dry stone walls. It also had numerous street lights and shelter illumination.
I do not own Athby Round any more so it is not available for exhibition.
